Ondo Doctors Threaten Strike Due to Poor Welfare Package

The Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) in Ondo state has issued a seven-day ultimatum to the state government regarding the inadequate welfare packages for doctors in the state.

They have warned of potential industrial action if the Ondo state government fails to address their demands within the stipulated timeframe.

The stance of the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) was articulated in a communique issued after the association’s Ordinary General Meeting (OGM), which expressed dismay over the persistent departure of doctors from the state due to inadequate welfare packages.

Additionally, the non-implementation of the approved hazard allowance and salary discrepancies between doctors in Ondo state and those in neighbouring states were highlighted.
